More Children Are Wanted Say Mothers Of This Nation Who said America isn't a home loving country? A nation-wide sur vey of mothers' shows that they not only enjoyed their children, but they all want more. This survey, conducted by the i Woman's Home Companion, re veals that just about every mother in America would like to have one more child. And, they all want large families. The majority! of the women questioned by the Companion thought that four child ren would make an ideal family. M Not only do American mothers want large families, but they «know the reason why.. Here are some of the reasons they offered: "I grew up in a large family,'! said a Min nesota woman, "and it was won-! derful. What we lacked in luxuri es, we gained in initiative, inde pendence and tolerance." Another woman said, "As I get' older, I real ize that the woman with the large ] family has indeed accumulated the important things in life." Perhaps one of the most interest ing responses came from a mother; in Texas. She wrote: "Whenever! somebody says, 'What a large fam-: ily!' our oldest child answers, 'Just right. Four to play hide-and-seek and one to be IT!" All real love, as you may have discovered, is sometimes mixed with ugly emotions. Here is the reason why, says a leading marri age consultant. "There are five faces of love," t writes Murray Campbell in the Wo man's Home Companion. "They are affection, hate, submissiveness, hostility and jealousy. And in every; normal relationship we find some of all these emotions." , No love in the world can wear the tender face of affection all of the time, continued Mr. Campbell. I It is only the person who . shows the four unpleasant faces all of the time or the person who can't show them at all, who is neurotic." I So ladies, the next time your husband gets on your nerves, re member it is perfectly natural for you to feel hostile once in a while. And you might keep in mind that occasionally your husband feels the same toward you. Most four-year-olds can dress themselves—almost, that is some times. Though they may know what is required of them, says an emi nent child authority, they aren't old enough to resist dawdling or playing. At this age and even later, writ es Anna W. M. Wolf in the Wo man's Home Companion, a moth er's skill in management is still what counts most. There are two things a mother can do to help a four-year-old in the problem of dressing. They are to refrain from nagging or shout- i ing, and develop a sixth sense of; when to help, says Mrs. Wolf. The frustrating problems of shoe buckling and bow tying should get j help from mother. Simpler tasks such as putting on shirt, slip, socks should be left to the child. But when a four-year-old's pati ence reaches the breaking point,! mother should be near at hand so she can step in and give the help. needed. A final word to mothers, | from the expert. A quiet sense of! humor and good-timing will save mqny a stormy scene with any child, no matter what the age. Whether you use it to clean sil verware or wrap a gift, you'll find aluminum foil handy around the house. Wrapping in foil is like storage in a metal box. Air, moisture and odors can't go through. It molds to any shape and stays put. No taping or tying necessary, and it is as handy as any kitchen implement. To clean silverware, the Wo man's Home Companion recom mends lining the bottom of a glass or enamel pan with the foil. Fill the pan with a boiling solution (of salt and soda. Add silver and in ten minutes it will be bright and gleaming. Festive ashtrays can be made by molding aluminum foil around lit tle paper plates from the dime store. If you are expecting a large crowd to spend the evening, the foil makes practical inexpensive coasters to go under glasses. The foil will also save kitchen scouring time, says the Companion. Line broiler pan with the foil to catch drippings. Former Old Fort Methodist Pastor Dies In Morganton Morganton—Funeral services for Rev. B. A.

Importing 20,000 Gallons Of Milk Per Day Raleigh, Oct. 27—Faced with a surplus last spring, North Carolina now is importing milk. Agriculture Commissioner L. Y. Ballentine said yesterday that sup plies of Grade A milk are coming in from other states at the rate of 15,000 to 20,000 gallons a day. "Unfortunately," said Ballentine, "the production of our own Grade A dairy herds is diminishing at a time when demand is increasing. "Milk consumption always picks up in the fall when schools reopen," he added, "but too few of our Rim ers have learned to fit their produc tion to the demand." Ballentine said "this is a season al trend, but it can be overcome through good herd management." The shortest distance across the United States is 2,152 miles, from points near Charleston, S. C., and San Diego, Cal. Used Car Sale This Week Only 1934 CHEVROLET Standard" 4 door 1935 PLYMOUTH New Paint, good car 1939 FORD 4 door.
